i rest my case on atl being a one year wonder every 20 years or so, but clearly making the superbowl, will probably preclude them from any thing phenominal for the next 50 years. bad karma.

i do feel bad for the citizens of the atl area, who will be subjected to atl games each week. i am sure the bye week can not come soon enough so nfl football can be displayed in the market.

the question becomes whether the lams are for real? or will the 49ers continue to dominate them as they have done for nearly 20 years. the west has become a funny division recently with a nobody interrupting the 49er reign for a season, only to fall back to mediocrity, first carolina and then atl.

Reeves should have gone in with the backup QB. He put in Chandler but instead he should have been willing to take the loss in order to get Chandler healed. You can't come back from those hamstring injuries while they're still nagging.

It sounds like he's set back Chandler several weeks when he should have bit his upper lip and taken a loss or two while Chandler recuperated.

Speaking of Chandler, think of all of the Washington Husky QBs in the league:

Brunell
Hobert
Chandler
Damon and Brock Huard
Moon

Ah... but the Coug's have the super bowl guy... $tar knows who I'm talking about... Rypien. Let's not forget Bledsoe.

FWIW

I knew going in that this was the best offense we have faced this year, much better than the Vikings and the Cowboys.

St. Louis - Average Points - 31 Average net yards - 396
Dallas - Average Points - 32.5 Average net yards - 386
Minn. - Average Points - 18 Average net yards - 327

Well, St. Louis has not been much better than Dallas...
Anti-Cowboy fans speak not what they know ;))))
